    Default Was this an optional wheel?

    Looks like a Ford logo on the center cap. Anybody know anything about this style wheel and whether or not it was ever an option?

    Is it one of the four holding the car off the pavement? No? Then it's not optional.

    Yes. Yes I do think you missed the point.

    The wheels look simiilar to my Enkei wheels, but could be ARE too as already mentioned. You should be able to look on the backside of the wheel and find some manufacturer information.

    I've had both the are and Enkei wheels. They look identical. The Enkei ones are much lighter though. The also all have Enkei stamped into the back.
